Adding risk to the game?

Traditionally the way it works is opt in, those players joined a PvP server, whether they are new or not, they chose to join a PvP server - they deserve and should expect to get ganked. Don't like it? Don't roll on a PvP server. I definitely agree it would have to be opt in, at some point. In this game, probably instanced like ESO could work, but the PvP in this game is god awful so it would be doomed from the start.

Personally, I have always ONLY rolled on PvP servers or realms. My WoW characters were on PvP, and if I pick up classic wow - and I probably will - those are going on PvP realms. I feel like I am missing out, and I am playing on a lesser server if that interaction is lost to me completely. ESO's works pretty well, and is active, but that game has other problems - I just don't enjoy it enough to play it as a main game, always in bursts. Problem in current WoW, and probably will happen to classic is one side always has more of an advantage, people will flock to the larger faction, making the lesser faction even more weak - so any players on that lesser faction just end up getting decimated by sheer numbers, and less of a chance for backup.Not just WoW, but games like SWTOR had this with Imps vs. Pubs, etc.
